After eliminating Lleida in the Round of 16, Atleti will face Sevilla.

Atleti will face Sevilla in the Copa del Rey quarter-finals, after a draw in the Ciudad del Fútbol de Las Rozas determined the fixture. All Copa del Rey matches, except for the final, are played home and away.

"It's a tough draw. You know when you're in this competition that you have to face the best teams," Clemente Villaverde, Atlético de Madrid's development manager, said. "We're two teams with lots of tradition in the Copa."

The first leg will be in the Wanda Metropolitano on 17 January at 7 p.m. and the return leg in the Sánchez Pizjuán on 23 January at 9:30 p.m. CET.
